Canadian Family Physician, Fast Fact, October, 2011.

“The 2010 NPS data show that the proportion of physicians who are paid mostly through FFS is decreasing. Forty percent of FPs reported receiving 90% or more of their income through FFS remuneration compared with 48% in 2007 and 52% in 2004. The blended payment model is on the rise—in 2010, 35% of FPs reported not having a singlesource account for 90% of their income. This number is up from 31% in 2007 and 28% in 2004.”
